Chapter 1 The Mage Who Determines the Future

Time is like a tinkling stream, and it has quietly entered winter. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

When the first cold air from the north swept across the north, the goose-feathered snow turned the city into a world of snow.

The originally warm-toned city was covered with snow, and the spacious streets, pointed eaves, and tall mages TC City were dressed in pure white plain clothes.

Even on a cold night, the snow can refract the city like the morning light with the light of a huge full moon high above the night sky that is large enough to see the crater above.

Claire stood in a separate room in the central tower of Icewind Castle, holding a cup of hot cocoa, standing in front of the window and watching the night view of the city.

More than a dozen towering mage towers with strange shapes exude the light of various laws, reflecting the entire central area into strange colors.

In a vacant lot in the central district, a mage tower under construction stands quietly in the night, it is the master tower built for the new master Charlotte.

The snowy streets of the Central District are sparsely populated, and mages don't want to wander around on cold winter nights, even with handy thermostat spells.

In the distance, Icewind's business district is bustling with people, in stark contrast to the chilly central district. Even the cold winter in the north could not stop the enthusiasm of merchants to earn gold coins.

Claire took a sip of the hot cocoa and let the sweet and warm cocoa bloom on her taste buds. He looked out somewhere on the street, a slight smile on his lips.

If I'm not mistaken, it's the shop Charlotte and Claire visited when they first came to Icewind Castle. There, there are cute and enthusiastic cat girls who can talk and meow, as well as a variety of exotic flavor snacks.

"Wow! he smiled! he smiled!" a crisp and pleasant voice came from outside the window.

"I've heard that Claire is going to eat people when she laughs!, and she loves to eat petite, soft and delicious girls like us!" another equally pleasant voice whispered to the former, but the voice was not disguised at all.

"No, no, no...... Yes!" The goblin who heard the bad news at first glance had a dull face like a robot.

"Really! It is said that it tastes crunchy and chicken! Charlotte said that Claire often shared with him a hundred ways to eat leprechauns! It is said that Claire's favorite way to eat is to use the three-squeak method, using chopsticks to pinch us, squeak, and tearful we dip some sauce and squeak, and finally put it in her mouth and chew it in two pieces, squeaking and screaming......

"Wow wow! Claire is a demon—"

Claire looked at the goblins who were chirping and flapping the cicada's wings, and the streamers were constantly drifting from the cicada's wings, and her face was so black that she was about to drip ink.

He pushed open the window and grinned.

"Wow! Claire's Archdemon is going to eat goblins—"

The little goblins, whose bodies were only the size of palms, were discolored, and they were blindfolded and deceived by themselves.

One of the dazed elves slammed into the glass window, falling straight down like an unpowered cannonball. Claire grabbed her quickly, and the little goblin with a ruddy forehead escaped from death, patting her little chest and breathing a sigh of relief.

When he looked at Claire who was close at hand, he was so frightened that he couldn't possess his body, his small lips opened into an O-shape, and his body spun and fell into Claire's palm.

“……”

Claire looked at the cute goblin speechlessly, and reluctantly put her carefully on the desk, he wrapped the clean cotton cloth on the lab table for the goblin, and then looked at the goblins who had gathered again outside the window.

"The Great Devil has captured Lily!"

"What should I do? Lily is about to turn into a three-squeak!"

"No, do you see the cotton? I think this time it should be steamed or fried!"

"What a miserable Lily......"

"Shut up!" a slightly more mature elf stepped forward, "Kindred! now is the time to show our unity! Let's rush in and defeat the Adversary and rescue Lily!"

"Oh-"

Although the goblins outside the window said blood-boiling words, none of them dared to stand up and challenge the devil.

In the middle of the sound, the leading goblin looked at a dozen pairs of emerald green pupils staring at him, blushing and twisting, and said, "Do you want to, or not, let's go back and ask Queen Sylvia to administer justice......

Her leaderless proposal was unanimously embraced by the elves, who grimaced and sneered at Claire and flew toward the central spire.

Claire took the goblins as a joke as a joke, shrugging his shoulders and looking at the tender face of the leprechaun lying on the desk.

Not to mention, when they are quiet, they are indeed as perfect and charming as works of art.

Claire thought about her thoughts, and suddenly her childlike spirit returned, and he dipped his little fingertip in hot cocoa and smeared the brown and black cocoa on the goblin's face, half-retaliating, half-jokingly.

The little leprechaun named Lily was obviously a complete foodie, and the sleeping leprechaun first frowned uncomfortably, then closed his eyes as if sensing food, stretched out his small ruddy tongue, and hugged Claire's little finger and added it with relish.

Claire frowned at the itching sensation of a small animal scratching its finger, and he tried to pull it out, but suddenly remembered something and stopped doing so. Instead, he carefully maintained his stiff movements and raised his little finger, for fear of waking up the sleeping goblin.

He wondered if Vivien Leigh, who was far away in Fort Savoie, was like this little goblin, sitting in her boudoir, holding her beloved food box, and then ...... Chew, chew, chew.

Buckle buckle ......

Just then, there was a cautious knock at the door. Claire frowned slightly as she looked up at the delicate door with magical runes engraved on it.

"Come in. He was a little disgusted that others interrupted his beautiful reverie.

"Sorry, sorry, teacher. Outside the door walked a yellow-haired young man, he hunched his shoulders, aware of his teacher's displeasure, "But Her Highness Charlotte wants me to see if you have time, and he seems to have something to talk to you about......"

"Charlotte?" Claire's emerald green pupils twitched, "I don't remember when he became so polite." Are you sure he's Charlotte?"

"Okay. He noticed the uneasy look in the boy's eyes, "Anyway, please let him in." ”

"Yes, yes!" the boy nodded and turned to walk out the door.

When he was about to reach the door, he suddenly stopped, and asked in a hesitant voice, "Old, teacher, ......"

Claire kept her little finger cocked, her gaze moving from the leprechaun to the student.

"Leonard?"

The mage apprentice named Leonard was startled, and after a long time, he finally mustered up the courage to ask the cold teacher, "You—Are you really going to go to the Far North?"

"Well, I'll be going next month at the latest. Claire lowered her head and looked at the goblin who had licked all the cocoa and frowned disapprovingly to let go of her little hand.

Suddenly he thought of something, looked up and said, "You still have time to think about it, and to be honest, I don't recommend that you go with me to the Far North, which is a place for the living dead and is not safe. ”

"Rest assured. Despite the cold, Claire made a promise, "I'll let Charlotte take care of you, and you can continue to study with him." ”

"No!teacher!" Leonard looked up and said loudly after hearing Claire's cold promise, feeling as if a fire was boiling in his chest.

"Please let me follow in your footsteps!"

Claire was stunned for a long time, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth and he waved his hand.

"Alright, go and ask Charlotte to come in. ”

"Yes, teacher!"

When the decision was made, young Leonard felt the cells in his whole body jump, and he straightened his chest and abdomen, and walked out the door with a high momentum.

"Not bad......" Claire whispered inside the door.
